Pratik Karki, a Nepal-born tech professional, shared his immigration journey on X after receiving his US green card alongside his wife, describing years of uncertainty, career risks and personal sacrifices that shaped his path.
Karki said his father had worked as a postdoctoral researcher at Harvard and Berkeley when he was a toddler. Following the end of his parents’ marriage, his father returned to Nepal with Karki and his brother, raising them alone in modest circumstances at their grandparents’ home.
